For other Unix-like platforms, the driver already respects `-sysroot` over `-sdk` as the native sysroot (not Swift "SDK"). See the following PRs for reference: * swiftlang#1811 * swiftlang/swift#72352 For WebAssembly, this change makes the driver behave consistently with other platforms. This consistency is important for supporting swiftc as a swift-build's underlying linker driver for Wasm targets, as UnixLd.xcspec now uses `-sysroot` by default: https://github.com/swiftlang/swift-build/blob/02e9f6778b621375b5a5a2fe40f9a4b55bb44ba0/Sources/SWBGenericUnixPlatform/Specs/UnixLd.xcspec#L61-L68

…ot` for now The override is needed because swift-driver currently does not respect `-sysroot` for Wasm targets, but only `-sdk`. This will be fixed in swift-driver in the change: swiftlang/swift-driver#2053

This new It is possible that your Wasm work will do fine with it- I don't know- as your SDK bundle may be more self-contained, but it definitely still has problems on Unix. |
